    @volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip I'm using 200% but mostly because fractional scaling kinda sucks

    Tbh I'd rather have a screen at maybe 1440p where you can use 100% scaling, for most use cases

    @volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip (though 200% does give really nice font rendering)

      @volpeon I wanted a big screen that just works (even/especially with legacy software).

      And FullHD is regrettably still "the standard".

      So instead of UI scaling + hoping, I simply stay with the same resolution as everyone else...

      @wakame People keep telling me UI scaling is weird, but that doesn't match my experiences at all these days. ​​ It used to be bad at the beginning, but I don't remember the last time I had issues

        @wakame At least when you go from 100% to 200%. Fractional is weird.

          @volpeon It depends on my distance from the screen and other variables, but usually at close range I'll tell software to assume the screen's physical DPI, plus/minus 25%. #lang_en

            @volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip at work I have an ultra wide 3440x1440 and I use it with 1.25 or 1.5 scale (not sure which anymore)

              @volpeon
              Fun fact: Some C#/XAML UIs simply scale-up-then-blur parts of the UI.

              "Is it me or is the UI blurry?"

              takes screenshot, zooms in

              "Nope, it's not me."

                  I don't use ui scaling, I just adjust the display resolution. Nobody can read 12pt text in 4k, why have we wrought that which we cannot use?

                        @volpeon I plug the monitor in, it displays cute anime girls.

                        And then one day it turns out the aspect ratio breaks wc3.

                            @volpeon Normal scaling at 100% because it just works for whatever native resolutions the display supports so everything doesn't look too big on the UI.

                              @volpeon Oh damn 4k maybe I'd use 150 but I'd rather just get a 1080p 24" screen at 100% because ui scaling is still broken on nearly every os

                                          @volpeon why use such a high resolution when I can't see the difference anyway.
